The Ambassador's Daughter

While this novel was not as great as The Kommandant's Girl, it was equally fascinating and quite a page turner. Set mainly in Versallies, Pam Jenoff tells the story of Margot, a young woman escaping from her life back in Berlin, trying to forget the life she knows she has to return to someday. There she meets George Richwalder (Kommandant) and within a week the two fall for one another. Secrets are all around with every character holding onto secrets of their own boiling down to a shocking betrayal . I would've given a full five stars to this book but it just ended where I wish the author would have went on or at least 're did the epilogue and showed more of Margot and George s life in Berlin and leading up to the events of The Kommandants Girl. It was an overall great read and Pam Jenoff's way with words is alwyas mesmerizing. Four and a half stars!!
